Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $595,780 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) project grant to Rural Alaska Community Action Program Inc. (Rural Cap), a non-profit organization and community development corporation based in Anchorage, Alaska. The grant funding will support Rural Cap's initiatives to quickly rehouse individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Alaska, minimize the trauma of homelessness, promote access to mainstream resources, and optimize self-sufficiency. Eligible activities under this grant include permanent housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The project period runs from Jul 1, 2024 to Jun 30, 2025. Rural Cap, with its extensive track record of administering federal grants across diverse community development and social service domains, will leverage this funding to implement comprehensive, culturally sensitive, and locally informed interventions to address homelessness in Alaska.
